The Solnhofen Limestone or Solnhofen Plattenkalk is a collective term for multiple Late Jurassic lithographic limestones in southeastern Germany, which is famous for its well-preserved fossil flora and fauna dating to the late Jurassic (Kimmeridgian-Tithonian). The paleoenvironment is also often referred to as the Solnhofen Archipelago. The Solnhofen Archipelago was located at the northern edge of the Tethys Ocean as part of a shallow epicontinental sea and is firmly a part of the Mediterranean realm. ^[3]

Ardeadactylus	A. longicollum			The holotype was destroyed in a WW2 air raid, but another more complete specimen is known from the Nusplingen limestone.	Formerly considered a species of Pterodactylus, it is more closely related to Gnathosaurus and Germanodactylus. [80]

Scaphognathus [91]	S. crassirostris [91]	Eichstätt, Mühlheim	Altmühltal Formation, Mörnsheim Formation		A Solnhofen genus erected in 1861 by J. A. Wagner when he recognized the rhamphorhynchoid nature of "Pterodactylus" crassirostris after the discovery of a specimen with a preserved tail. [91] The Solnhofen Limestone is the only known source of Scaphognathus fossils. [91] S. crassirostris was originally named P. crassirostris in 1831 by August Goldfuss who mistook the tailless specimen for a new Pterodactylus species. [91]
